REGULATIONS

It is the members and visitors to the Greensborough RSL (the Club) who make it a success and so, in turn, the club takes a very serious view of its responsibilities to our patrons and the community.  The RSL has set in place its own policies and regulations to maintain the safety and security of its facilities and that of its patrons, as well as adhering to the laws governing its operation.  Members and visitors are asked to abide by these regulations and policies and to follow all directions given by staff and management at all times.

Responsible Service of Alcohol

The Greensborough RSL (the Club) requires all staff to be trained in the Responsible Service of Alcohol to be able to:

  • identify customers to whom service may be refused;
  • prepare and serve alcoholic beverages responsibly;
  • assist customers to drink within appropriate limits; and
  • assist alcohol affected customers.

The Club’s policy is to serve members and guests with alcoholic beverages in a professional, responsible and friendly manner. The Australian community and governments take alcohol-related issues such as drink driving and violence very seriously, as does the RSL.

Responsible Service of Gaming

Responsible gambling occurs in a regulated environment where the potential for harm associated with gambling is minimised and patrons make informed decisions about their participation in gambling.  Responsible gambling occurs as a result of the collective actions and shared ownership by individuals, communities, the gambling industry and Government to achieve outcomes that are socially responsible and responsive to community concerns.

The Greensborough RSL aims to provide an environment that:

  • ensures the integrity and fairness of games;
  • ensures the probity of those involved in the conduct of gaming machine gambling; and
  • minimises the potential harm for gaming machine gambling.
